I KNOW THERE'S DEF NO REASON TO ROOT FOR THE KNICKS NOWADAYS, IT MAY TAKE ANOTHER 3-4YEARS TO RECONSTRUCK THE TEAM. BUT IT WASNT SO LONG THAT THE KNICKS WERE A DOMINATE FORCE IN THE NBA, I REMEMBER THE 94 SEASON IN PARTICULAR, (SHOULD HAVE WON THE TITLE THAT YEAR) I WAS A YOUNG TEEN HYPE WITH MY KNICKS JACKET, THE JACKET IS GONE JUST LIKE THE HOPES OF KNICKS WINNING A TITLE ANYTIME SOON. BUT I CHECKED OUT SOME SPOTS IN THE CITY, VINTAGE KNICKS JACKETS GOING FOR LIKE $9.99 AND UP, IT WAS INCREDIBLE, IT WAS SO EXPENSIVE & HARD TO GET BACK IN THE DAY. HERE'S A LOOK OF WHAT I CHECKED OUT... NOT SURE, BUT I HEARD THAT NY,KNICKS WILL BE REISSUING VINTAGE STYLES BACK.

THESE ARE MY 2 FAV BRANDS, WHEN COME DOWN TO SUNGLASSES THESE FRAMES HAVE IT AHEAD OF THE PACK, WHEN IT COMES TO MODERN DESIGN WITH A TWIST OF VINTAGE NOSTALGIA, THESE CAZAL FRAMES WERE DISCONTINUED IN 96, HOWEVER DITA PITCHED AN IDEA TO CAZAL, TO RECONNECT & START THIS PARTICULAR STYLE THAT MADE CAZAL FAMOUS IN EARLY 80'S. HERE'S A PEEK ON WHATS TO COME WITH THE CALOB

THE SLOT WILL GO POLITICAL FOR THE FIRST TIME, I TRY NOT TO INVOKE POLITICS INTO MY FORUM, I DO THAT PUBLICLY ENOUGH... LOL, THE INTERNET DOESNT NEED MORE OF THAT FROM ME, THERE'S MILLIONS VOICING THEIR THOUGHTS AS IT IS, BUT ILL DROP AN UPDATE... FOR YA'LL

TODAY, CHI-TOWN SENATOR BARACK OBAMA WINS BY A LANDSLIDE IN S.C., THIS PAST WEEK CELEBS (USHER, I WANT U KERRY WASHINGTON & CHRIS TUCKER) LEND THEIR SUPPORT FOR THE SENATOR.

ONE THING IM LEARNING ABOUT THE POLICITAL GAME, IS THAT WHOEVER WINS THE MOST DELEGATES WILL DETERMINE THE DEMS NOMINATION, NOT WINNING THE STATES ALONE. ONE THING I MUST SAY, THEY SHOULD KEEP THINGS SIMPLE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND DO AWAY WITH THAT PROCESS, IT SHOULD DEF BE LIKE A PLAYOFF GAME, WHOEVER WINS THE MOST, EX-(4 OUT 7) (STATES) SHOULD BE THE WINNER.

RECON AND FUTURA WILL BE TEAMING UP TO CREATE SUNGLASSES, THE SUNGLASSES ARE DESIGNED AS WRAP AROUND STYLE & THE RECON LOGO WILL BE VISIBLE. THE ARTISTIC DIRECTION IS FUTURA, (PAINTED ARTWORK ON THE SUNGLASSES) CHECK THAT OUT THIS YEAR. (TBA)

THE 50'S & 60'S WERE QUITE A TIME OF SHIFT OF IDEOLOGY IN AMERICA, HOWEVER WE CAN'T ARGUE THAT FASHION WAS BECOMING THE LATEST CRAZE, WITH THE ERA OF JACKIE-O AND JFK (CAMELOT) . MARTIN LUTHER KING & CORETTA SCOTT KING WERE ALSO REPPING, I LUVED THE DAMPER SUITS, THE WAYFARER SUNGLASSES, THE CUSTOM MADE SHIRTS & HATS.

WHY DOES IT TAKE ONLY 1 DAY OF THE YEAR TO REFLECT ON THE BASIC PRINCIPALS OF BEING A BETTER HUMAN BEING? IN THE LATTER PART OF THE 20TH CENTURY MLK MADE US RE-EXAMINE THE HUMAN PSYCHE. HERE'S HIS FINAL SPEECH, ITS PRETTY SAFE TO SAY, HE WAS AHEAD OF HIS TIME.
